The assumption of falling through is based on what? If you are cashing out and immediately selling, the process could be as little as minutes, and never more than 24 hours, which decreases the exposure to price fluctuation. People need to stop freaking out about the fluctuations and just treat is as a form of money transfer with one extra step. Unless you think that extra step is more cumbersome than waiting two weeks for a check, taking it to the bank, and waiting for it to clear.
Regarding locals, the percentage I have had difficulty with far outweigh any issues I've had offshore.
If someone doesn't have any plans of winning long term, is just doing it for entertainment, and they're not a whale, there's no reason not to only use a trusted local.
